Simply put, its funding model is broken. That\u2019s forcing Miami Dade to exclude many of the students it\u2019s meant to be serving. For a literal look at this phenomenon, you\u2019d need to gain access to the college\u2019s IT department at midnight on the day in late June when the school’s online registration system allows students to begin registering for fall classes. At precisely 12:01 am, torrents of students log in to try to register for classes the moment the reg\u00ac istration system opens, knowing there are far too many students clambering for too few seats in classes.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s become common for the rush of students to overload the technology, leading to a crash of the computer registration system. The problem is one any Econ 101 student can understand: supply and demand. Enrollment at Miami Dade, as at most community colleges, has soared in recent years, while its pri\u00ac mary source of funding, taxpayer dollars, has shrunk.<\/p>\n

To cope with the funding shortage, in 2008, Miami Dade reduced the number of course sections it offered by some twelve hundred. In 2009, according to the Miami Herald, the school laid off em\u00ac ployees and cut academic programs, including courses in hospi\u00ac tality and oceanographic engineering.28 For students, the result is that getting a seat in a class at Miami Dade has become a bit like musical chairs, a reality that its president acknowledges is a big problem.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we have about thirty thousand students who couldn\u2019t take all the classes they needed,\u201d Padron says. \u201cWe had over five thousand who could not take the remedial classes they needed. In my opinion, that\u2019s the worst thing that can happen to a community. Every time we fail to admit one student, what options do they have? They don\u2019t have the resources to pay for another college.<\/p>\n

[Many of them] can\u2019t get admitted to another college. They don\u2019t have the money to go out of town [to study The (Theoretically) Perfect Solution 93 at a distant institution]. It\u2019s a waste of human talent and causes tremendous potential for social unrest. The funding problems, common to community colleges across the nation, are a function of the colleges\u2019 financial model.<\/p>\n

Ac\u00ac cording to the American Association of Community Colleges, public community colleges receive 38 percent of their revenue from state appropriations. Another 17 percent comes from local appropriations. Five percent comes from federal grants and con\u00ac tracts. Those tax subsidies, which make up well over half of the colleges\u2019 revenue, are the key reason community colleges are able to keep tuition so low: tuition and fees account for just 20 percent of the money coming in.29 When you talk to community college officials about the fund\u00ac ing problems, they reiterate the \u201cforgotten stepchild\u2019\u2019 status that Obama referred to in his speech at Macomb.<\/p>\n

They complain about how little per-student funding they receive when com\u00ac pared with K-12 and four-year university education.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe next twenty-five years offer an opportunity to transform the way students have learned for centuries. We will be able to deliver education to students where they are, based on their specific needs, desires, and backgrounds.\u201d -ANDREW S. ROSEN Imagine a university where programs are tailored to the needs of each student, the best professors are available to everyone, curriculum is relevant to the workplace, and the value of the education is demonstrable.<\/p>\n

In Change.edu, Andrew S. Rosen shows how that future is possible but at the same time is in danger of being stifled by a system of incentives that emphasize prestige and tradition, rather than access and outcomes. The U.S. higher education system has historically been considered one of the best in the world. This thought-provoking story presents the imperative for transforming that system for the 2ist century and beyond. Rosen takes on the sacred cows of traditional higher education models and calls on the country to demand the changes needed to build a qualified workforce and compete in a global economy.<\/p>\n
